Selected Answer: B
B. Consent may not be valid if the employee feels compelled to provide it: This is correct. The GDPR requires that consent be freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous. In an employer-employee relationship, there is an inherent imbalance of power, which can make it difficult for consent to be considered freely given. Employees may feel that they have no real choice but to consent, which undermines the validity of the consent.
